This year’s Christmas ornament is a sphere made from a walnut dodecahedron. I have cut a simple Christmas graphic on each of the 12 sides of the dodecahedron. Overlaid on this I added some colored pencils to add some detail. For example, there’s a wreath that is a simple donut shaped inlay out of wood and the colored pencils make the bow and the decorations in the wreath. There’s a simple gingerbread man shape with colored pencil frosting. The simple graphics on the sphere are made from cherry wood and the sphere itself is made from walnut wood. The sphere turned out larger than I had expected so it’s really a little bit big for hanging on a Christmas tree.
